Murgh Kali Mirch

Murgh Kali Mirch is a flavourful delicacy of Chicken cooked in black pepper and yogurt based gravy. This was in my To-Do list since quite a sometime but could make it due to some or the other reason. Last week when I came to know about one of my immensely dear friend flying to bangalore from overseas to meet us, I was desperate to see her as we haven’t met before. I met her virtually in one of the food forum,gradually became very good friends. She is a hardcore Non vegetarian, when I invited her to my home, all I had in my mind is to make chicken and mutton for her. That’s when I decided to make this super delicious peppery Murgh Kali Mirch. Mutton dish that I made for her is yet to be disclosed, I shall be posting it real soon.
Murgh Kali Mirch is truly easy to cook dish and it can be prepared in minimum time when guests are expected. This peppery chicken curry couples up superbly with nan or lachcha paratha and zafrani pulao but also with chapatis or phulkas too. So here’s how I did mine…

This looks delicious and I would like to try it but have two questions:
The ingredient list says “2 nos, medium onions, finely chopped”. I am unfamiliar with the term “nos”; what does it mean?
I have read that fresh celery leaves are an acceptable substitute for the dried fenugreek leaves, which are not available in my town, would you recommend this substitution?
